Warriors forward Draymond Green is close to signing with agent Rich Paul of Klutch Sports, according to Yahoo Sports’ Chris Haynes.
Green, 28, has previously been represented by Wasserman. The former Defensive Player of the Year is set to hit unrestricted free agency after next season, the final year on the five-year, $82MM pact he signed in 2015.
Golden State state will have to deal with Klay Thompson and Kevin Durant hitting the open market this summer. Thompson has previously mentioned a strong desire to re-sign with the Warriors while Durant’s future remains unclear.
As for Green, he’ll become Klutch Sports’ latest high-profile addition the last six months, joining Anthony Davis, Markieff Morris and Marcus Morris. Paul also represents NBA All-Stars LeBron James, John Wall, Ben Simmons and others.
In 43 contests this season, Green is averaging 7.2 PPG, 7.5 RPG and 7.3 APG.
Can’t wait for writers to turn this into 14 months of Draymond-Knicks rumors.
Rich Paul just got more hate-able. I didn’t think it was possible.
Count down the days until Paul comment how Green is under paid and wants to play with the lakers.
Draymond could be the next Oakley for the Knicks
If y’all think he’s going to the Knicks and you also think KD is going to the Knicks you’re crazy! If KD goes there he’s not going there. Man I thought ya Lakers fans thought we were gonna get every free agent. Literally every free agent out there the Knicks fans think they are going to get. How much money do they have? Lol.
There is no K in his name. So Draymond can’t possibly be a free agent this year!!! #FakeNews
OK…
You have Kevin Durant, Kawhi Leonard, Kyrie Irving, Kemba Walker, Klay Thompson, Khris Middleton, Kristaps Porzingas(restricted), not to mention KeMarcus Kousins and Kimmy Butler. It KRAZY!
I think Kris Humphries will be a free agent too
